Re: [alfa] how long are they?

["The Baylys" <dabaylys@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Kyle,

I successfully tow my Alfa's around on a multi-purpose trailer with a bed
length of only 3 metres.  There is overhang both ends which may not be legal
where you are, but you only need the trailer long enough for the wheelbase
plus about 18".  The vehicles are always securely tied down fore/aft.

Of course, the front wall of the trailer must either fold down or be low
enough for the Alfetta's spoiler to clear or you will require a longer bed.

I am currently lengthening the trailer to 5 metres so I can fully enclose it
and use it as a temporary Alfa garage.

Pics here:  http://au.f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/beatle_bayly/my_photos   Go
to DIY Workshop Tools and you'll see a 75TS and an Alfetta sedan on the
(short) trailer.
